Correspondence Last week we invited readers' comments on the proposed name change of Orem to Gentva Most of the comment seems to favor the change. As a matter of fact no negative reports have reached us to date. Following are a couple of letters we received: re-ceived: Dear Mr. Semit, Yes! Of course, we want the name of Orem changed. Why Orem in the first place? Mr. Orem was not even a resident of Utah Valley. .Should we name our city after a man? Let's name it for one )i our early pioneers. However, Geneva seems very appropriate for this valley of the mountains. Too bad it wasn't tailed Geneva before the steel P ant was erected so that the Plant couldd have the honor of emg named after this most beautiful place. ' , (Signed) I. M.

In support of the proposed changing of Orem's name to Geneva the Orem Chamber of Commerce was circulating for signatures this week a petition directed to Mavor J. W. Gill- man and the Orem City Council which reads as follows: ' "We the undersigned respectfully respect-fully petition you to change the name of Orem City to Geneva. Some' of the reasons for making this request are: 1. The name Orem, named after Mr. Orem who built a railroad which went into the hands of receivership and finally final-ly left thousands of people hold ing worthless stock and bonds, has a historical background which invites undesirable inquiries. in-quiries. 2. Orem City is not known favorably in the industrial world. The Geneva Steel Company Com-pany uses a letterhead which reads- Geneva Steel Company, Geneva, Utah. Mail addressed to the steel plant is addressed, Geneva, Utah and is handled by the Salt Lake City postoffice. By changing the name it would bring the mail here which would make this a first class postoffice and would advance our chances for getting a feder al building. 3. Steel Plant officials consid er it a desirable step to take. 4. By changing the name, it would be published in every newspaper and magazine in the country, would give us millions of dollars worth of free adver tising. 5. The name Geneva would associate us with the leading sU'el industry of the west."

How the youngsters will thrill to see Superman flying fly-ing through the air as he comes down to earth to help thos2 who are in distress and right wrongs of those who are weaK.

Saturday For Chevrolet, $500 Ward Prize Over Half of County Budget Spent Over half of Utah county's 1948 budget was spent in the first six months of the year, it was revealed this week by Karl Bennett, county auditor. The ex- penditures totaled $358,805 from January 1 to June 30 $80,432 less than for the same period in 1947. Chief reason for the decrease was xne enmmauou oi w.. payments by co unties this year, made until July 1 of 1947.

Other expenditures of county government for the two periods are about the same, with the exception ex-ception of $15,000 spent this year from the memorial fund for an Orem war memorial. Nothing was spent last year from this fund. This year $40,-000 $40,-000 was spent for new county highway equipment. Total high ways department expenditures for the first six months of 1948 are $118,137, compared to $90,- 972 for the same period last year. Wheat Support Price Announced The price to farmers on the 1948 wheat crop will be supported support-ed through loans from the Commodity Com-modity Credit Corporation, H B. Larsen, member of the Utah State FMA Committee, announ ced today. The loans will be made to farmers on farm stored and warehouse stored wheat from the time of harvest through December 31, 1948. Loans will mature on April 30, .1949, or earlier upon demand, Mr. Larsen Lar-sen explained. The National average loan rate of $2.00 per bushel at farm levels, represents 90 percent of the July 1, 1948 parity figure of $2.22 per bushel. Last year's rate was $1.84 per bushel. The increase in wheat parity on July 1 of this year over the par ity figure of $2.04 on July 1, 1947, is a measure of the rise in prices paid by farmers for commodities used in production and farm family living. Wheat produced in 1948 and grading No. 3 or better or' grad ing U. S. No. 4 or 5, because of test weight only, will be eligible for loan. Producers desiring price protection through loans may have the loan documents measurements, sales, etc. handl ed through their local1 county Triple-A office, Mr. Larsen said Barbara and Marlene John son of Park City have been vis iting at the home of their uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Dean Johnson of Lake View.

" Fishing at Peak In Utah Now Says Official Fishing in Utah is at its peak right now, what with the waters wat-ers clearing and the trout turning turn-ing their attention from subsurface sub-surface to surface feed, Director Ross Leonard of the Utah Fish and Game Department said today to-day as he stated that now is the time to get on the lakes and streams. Reports from wardens throughout the state, and also from information received from individual sportsmen and fishing fish-ing parties indicate that fishing has been above par for the past week. Fishing is generally at its best just when the runoff waters start clearing, and the natural food supply of the eary fly hatches is curtailed, and again in September when the cooling nights permit the fish to come out of the shadows and take up their feeding within easy reach of the fisherman's fly. Of these two periods, the July session is generally the best for several reasons: The fishing traffic hasn't been as heavy as it will be through the next two months. Fish, too, haven't been frightened, snooked, spooked or scattered. By September, the fish become pretty wary, and are generally quite particular about their feeding habits. For these reasons, Mr. Leonard said, now is the time to go fishing. The game chief also recommended recom-mended that sportsmen get off the beaten trails. For best fishing fish-ing spots in any locality, Mr. Leonard advised sportsmen to contact the state warden or hatchery superintendent in that area. "These men are constantly in touch with the fishing picture. They are eager for sportsmen to get their fish, and will gladly give the best information they have to anyone seeking it." Leonard said. Members of the W. J. Clegg family met on Tuesday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lynn Starley. A wienie roast and singing around the bonfire was enjoyed by 45 family members. mem-bers.
